While this model has gained favour in other surgical fields, it has yet to be adopted in urology practice. We implemented an Acute Care Urology (ACU) model at a large Canadian community hospital to determine the measurable impacts on safe and timely care of patients with renal colic. METHODS: In July 2016, we adopted the intervention of an ACU model through the addition of an ACU surgeon, creation of a rapid referral clinic dedicated to emergency department (ED) patient referrals, and enhanced use of daytime OR blocks. We conducted a manual chart review of 579 patients presenting to the ED with a complaint of renal colic. Patient data was collected in two separate time periods to analyze trends before implementation of the ACU model (pre-intervention, September - November 2015), to examine the model’s impact (post-intervention, September - November 2016). Secondary methods of evaluation included a survey of 20 ED physicians to capture subjective feedback through Likert scale data. RESULTS: Of the evaluated 579 patients with a complaint of renal colic,194 patients were discharged from ED with an diagnosis of obstructing kidney stone and were referred to urology for outpatient care. The ED-to-clinic time was significantly lower for those in the ACU model (p <0.001). The mean time to clinic was 15.76 days (SD=15.47, range 1-93) pre-intervention versus 4.17 days (SD=2.33, range= 1-12) post-intervention. Furthermore, the ACU clinic allowed significantly more patients to be referred for outpatient care (p = 0.0004). There was also higher likelihood that patients would successfully obtain an appointment following referral (p = 0.0055). Decreasing trends were shown in mean ED wait time, time from surgical assessment to procedure, and percentage of after-hours surgeries.Results of the qualitative survey were overwhelmingly positive. All 20 surveyed ED physicians were more confident that outpatients would be seen in a timely manner (85% strongly agree, 15% agree). Qualitative feedback included the belief that follow-up is more accessible, that ED physicians are less likely to page the on-call urologist, and that they are able to discharge patients sooner. Overall satisfaction with the ACU model was 95%, and all believe there has been a positive impact on patient care. CONCLUSIONS: The ACU model for patients with renal colic may be beneficial in reducing ED-to-clinic time, ensuring proper follow-up after ED diagnosis, and improving patient care within the ED.
